“Holy T7 Polymerase, Batman!”: R&D Considerations For More Awe-Inspiring xRNAIt goes without saying we have some pretty ambitious therapeutic goals for linear mRNA and next-gen saRNA and circRNA. However, as my conversation with Koeris explored, we still have a lot of scientific and technical work/innovation ahead of us to make our RNA products “stronger” (in more ways than one).

What Violin Making Can Teach Us About mRNA Therapeutic QualityManaging the mRNA supply chain and working in mRNA process development may not look anything like the work a luthier does to hew an instrument from an ancient spruce tree. But violin craftmanship actually serves as a fantastic metaphor for the challenging work the mRNA therapeutics space is tackling in sourcing and qualifying raw materials and optimizing the critical IVT reaction.

SUPPLY CHAIN VIDEOS
The mRNA supply chain is undergoing massive growth in three particular areas. Here, speakers Khaled Yamout & Francoise Ribes walk us through the materials that have undergone the most scientific growth over the past few years and the impacts they’re noting these advancements having on the development of our mRNA drug substances and mRNA-LNP drug products.
Here, Advancing RNA Live speakers Khaled Yamout, Sanofi’s Francoise Ribes, and Camp4’s Satya Kuchimanchi share which supply chain advancements they would like to see in the near future, as well as how they anticipate these changes & evolutions could impact each modality’s growth.
As CRISPR technology evolves beyond the original Cas9, gRNAs are transitioning from simple targeting tools into highly engineered, complex molecules. In this Advancing RNA Live segment, speakers April Sena, Max De Long, and Venkat Krishnamurthy discuss how the rise of diverse nucleases — including prime editors — is impacting gRNA synthesis and purity.
Unlock the full potential of your pDNA purification with advanced chromatography solutions and resins that tackle high viscosity and impurities to ensure superior quality and yield.
